Which of the following molecules is most suitable to disperse benzene in water?

A)  

B)  

C)  

D)  

Correct Answer: C

Solution :

 Benzene is non-polar in nature. As we know that non-polar disperses more to non-polar substances. Therefore, meta-metyl nonylbenzene being non- polar from both sides will disperse more to benzene. All other substances (a, b and d) have either one side polar or both sides polar.
